When do we start to believe ?

And fatigue.

They had just given everything against Dortmund.

If we look at the Man u game then it looks like we're still not sure how to play against that type of team/set up but i hope being at home and top of the league will give the players and manager belief to go on and win.

at OT, for me at least, it looked like the manager wanted a draw and the players didnt look like they believed they could win.

Yep me too, to be brutally honest I wouldn't be overly upset if we draw with both Chelsea and City. Defeats in both could be potentially damaging, though I accept the league isn't won or lost in games against your rivals.

I do believe it's our best chance of beating Chelsea in a while, I honestly don't rate them that highly, they can be got at quite easily and defensively they are a lot weaker than in previous years, their midfield isn't up to much either. Individually they have some great players like Mata, Oscar, Ramires is very good on his day and obviously Lampard can still turn in a good performance, but they do not function that well as as a unit in Midfield and are very up and down. IMHO, if we play well, we will beat Chelsea.

City away will be very very difficult, similar to the Dortmund game IMHO, but like Chelsea, City are very questionable defensively, saying that Kompany is back now and I can't see Giroud getting much out of him. Despite that, we went there last year with a weaker less confident team and played them off the park, there is hope.

I'm started to get err well excited. Citeh draw, Chelski lose, United lose. If we win tomorrow we will put ourselves in such a good position going into the games against Citeh and Chelski.

Massive game tomorrow, massive couple of weeks coming up.

If we win tomorrow, we can lose to both City and Chelsea and still be top.

Not bad, not bad at all. :dance:

with results today and in previous weeks, you just can't help but shake this feeling that it is our year.

Getting a bit nervous now, which means I'm gaining more and more belief every week. This is basically how easy United had it last year and it's the same for us now.

It's there for us if we want it. :pray:

we are now the bookies favourites I think, which is a bit scary. however we are the only consistent team hence why we are top. We beat Everton and Chelsea and we will do it, only team who could stop us is City but they are struggling on there travels. Would be quite amusing if City, the chavs and united all fail to make top 4 hehe.

I literally care about nothing except the league.

We could crash out of everything at the earliest possible time for me if it means we keep focused on the league.

We don't have a huge squad, but we have a very high quality squad capable of sustaining the challenge. No injury would kill us except Giroud and perhaps Mertersacker.
